SSR marker-based genetic diversity analysis and SNP haplotyping of genes associating abiotic and biotic stress tolerance, rice growth and development and yield across 93 rice landraces.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: As rice is the staple food for more than half of the world's population, enhancing grain yield irrespective of the variable climatic conditions is indispensable. Many traditionally cultivated rice landraces are well adapted to severe environmental conditions and have high genetic diversity that could play an important role in crop improvement. METHODS AND RESULTS: The present study revealed a high...
